I just simply don't agree with you.  I've _seen_ it hinder the ability to get 
a release out, or a package update out.  I've _seen_ packages sit unbuildable 
for hours if not days until the one person with arch specific knowledge can 
look into whats going on.  Every new package will have to be 'bootstrapped' 
into an arch.  I can't expect new Fedora contributors to be completely 
stalled on getting software into Fedora, into the hands of millions of users 
simply because the software doesn't build for some obscure arch that somebody 
is working on getting going for Fedora, that has at most a couple hundred 
users.
